I don't own Ghost Hunt.

The Plot and extra characters are all mine!

Previously:

"Umm, we're friends of . . ."

"Yumi-chan, and we were wondering if she was home." I smiled slightly afraid of the outcome.

"Oh, that worthless girl, she should be in her room, she hasn't come out for a week."

What exactly is going on in this house?

. . .

~Mai's P.O.V~

I inclined my head as I walked past the plump lady. Shuffling my way into the house, I started to follow Kachi. Her footsteps stopped as soon as she rounded the corner to reveal a vast hallway with three single doors. Each door was similar; they were all a dark shade of grey. However the way they differed was quite drastic. Each had specific designs carved into the door, however even thought they were all carved they were very different. They stuck out like sore thumbs. One was a flame with various shades of blue within it, the flames seemed to flicker and emanate heat; another was lilac with freesia flowers, the flowers looked like they were being blow around by the wind, a wave of coolness hit me as I walked past. The last was a butterfly with red and pink wings, the wings seemed to flutter as you stepped closer. I stopped and turned to look at Kachi, her stance was guarded and her eyes were locked onto the door with the butterfly.

My arm reached out to touch the door in front of me, the glistening butterfly wings drew me closer each passing second. I stepped forward, my steps small and slow drawing me closer to the door. My fingers grazed against the door before my body fell backwards, colliding with the cold stone tiles. I rubbed the back of my head as I moved up, my elbows propping me up to see the reason for my descent, much to my surprise, Kachi was standing in front of the door, her back was to me but her head was turned over her shoulder, her once bright face was strangely dark. Her eyes were down cast, her lips set in a cold scowl.

"Do not even think about opening this door or entering this room when I'm around Taniyama-san."

I gulped, the girl in front of me was not the girl I had seen previously, her eyes were a shade darker and her voice was rough.

"Why?" My voice wavered, why? Because I had a feeling that behind this door was the biggest secret of them all.

"That's Yumi's room. That's why."

Why wouldn't we be able to enter? Are they hiding something? Maybe they already know what really happened to Yumi . . . What if Yumi was actually alive and they were trying to trick us . . what if . . .

NO. They wouldn't be like that. Maybe it's just too painful. The memories of her little sister. She can't face them yet.

Water slipped down my arms and legs, the cold liquid chilled my arms making them feel numb, I watched as the dark void transitioned into light grey, water droplets fell around me splashing onto the floor and turning a sickly crimson. My eyes searched the void for a sign of somebody; my eyes met a familiar face but not the face I was looking for. Her hair was the same colour as Kachi's but it was a shade darker her eyes were a sapphire blue. Her small hand reached out towards me before she retracted it holding it against her chest, the bright smile on her face was replaced was a sad smile, guilt swirled within her eyes. 'What are you going to do now Yu-chi? Hmm? Are you gonna let her get hurt?' My eyes flicked over to a man, his arm had cuts all over it, small droplets of blood slid down his arms falling from his fingertips. I turned back to the girl searching for an answer, but all that was let was a small cloud of pink dust and the soft voice echoing throughout the void. 'As long as I'm here you can do no one any harm.'

I jolted upwards as I felt a cold sensation on my fore head. "She's okay isn't she?"

"humph, she's probably slacking off again."

"Masako!"

I shook my head and looked around the room noticing that the temperature was slightly hotter than the rest of the house.

"Where am I?"

My eyes met dark blue eyes; a smirk was on his face. "The base Mai, where else?"

I growled. "Oh I don't know! I was having a . . . You know what? Never mind."

Something was telling me not to mention it. That if I told them something bad may happen.
